htacess redirect?

[initiald]

Hello, how do you write a redirect condition in htacess y if someone types in exactly http://www.example.com/folder/, it will redirect to exactly http://www.example.com/folder.php and not affecting any files inside the /folder?

Thanks

you can try

RedirectMatch 301 ^/folder/ http://www.mydomain.com/file.php

or try

RedirectMatch 301 ^/folder/ http://www.mydomain.com/forum.php

to send them back to forum home

Yea, kinda like posting at the .com, the support staff post right hours later after you help someone & post asking the same thing, i think they're getting paid by the post on support.

Oh thanks.

Didn't realize adding / in front of folder works.

I have try RedirectMatch 301 ^folder/ http://www.mydomain.com/file.php and this doesn't work as to what I want. Thank you very much!
